Course outline

​This training combines a preliminary eLearning module with two half-day in-person sessions to deliver a comprehensive and practical learning experience.

The eLearning component provides a clear understanding of the responsibilities involved in overseeing cybersecurity as a strategic business risk. It equips participants with actionable insights to address key questions and challenges they may encounter in their professional roles. This eLearning should be done before the start of the first in-person session.
